I did a new install of Ubuntu 9.04 on my machine and I'm having trouble loading the latest version of Java.
suaro@suaro-desktop:/usr$ java -version
java version "1.6.0_16"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_16-b01)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 14.2-b01, mixed mode, sharing)
suaro@suaro-desktop:/usr$
The java site (http://www.java.com/en/) shows Version 6 Update 16 is the latest.
I used Synaptic Package Manager and I'm certain I installed version 6 (some rev); however; when I go to the Java webpage , it show's that I'm running 1.6.0_16 and not passing the test :( .
I'm pretty certain I selected:
Sun Java(TM) Runtime Environment (JRE) 6 (architecture dependent files)
The Sun Java Platform Standard Edition Runtime Environment (JRE) 6
contains the Java virtual machine, runtime class libraries, and
Java application launcher that are necessary to run programs written
in the Java progamming language. It is not a development environment and
doesn't contain development tools such as compilers or debuggers.
For development tools, see the Java Development Kit JDK(TM) 6
(package sun-java6-jdk).
How can I get my broswer to pass the Java test ? :)
I know the version I installed from Synaptic occured because my Chess client program (Jin 2.14.1) wouldn't run until I installed the Java mentioned above. Curious to know why my browser shows a lesser version number.. I'm running gnome (not kde).
Thanks all !
